•Pro: Molly was so sweet, caring, and wounded. There were so many times during this story that I wanted to hug her.
•Pro: I really liked the way Sones kept the full story about Molly's past and what happened to her family under wraps. My curiosity built until I was almost begging for her to tell me.
•Pro: There are a lot of people in this book carrying around a ton of baggage. I was very pleased with the approach Sones took and how there was a theme of forgiveness in this book.
•Con: I just couldn't deal with Molly's parents. They were the worst! I understand what Sones was trying to do there, but they were so frustrating. I was happy with where they arrived at in the end, but it was a painful journey.
•Pro: Although there are a lot of heavy issues - mental illness, homelessness, drug addiction, there are some lighter parts to balance it out.
•Pro: I was all over that romance. I know it was instalove, but it was so sweet and adorable. Loved it!
•Pro: The pain is so real. Red's pain, Molly's pain, Molly's parents' pain, it was palpable.
•Pro: The ending!!! I am getting chills just thinking about it.
Overall: A heartwarming and emotional journey, where one girl is saved by attempting to save another.
